Hail, peaceful day! divinely blest!

Author: Annie R. Smith Appears in 4 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 Lyrics: 1 Hail, peaceful day! divinely blest! Sweetly thy glories would we sing, Memorial of that sacred rest Of vast creation's mighty King: This hallowed time to man was given, A foretaste of the bliss of heaven. 2 Hark! through the shining courts above What rapturous praises echo now! Around that holy law of love Seraphs in adoration bow; Let earth, responsive to the strain, Exalt alone Jehovah's name. 3 O come, thou bright, immortal day! When at his temple all adore, And own his universal sway From age to age, forevermore; Then Zion shall in triumph reign, And Eden bloom on earth again.

How Lovely Are Thy Tents, O Lord

Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 14 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1. How lovely are Thy tents, O Lord! Where’er Thou choosest to record Thy name, or place Thy house of prayer; My soul outflies the angel choir, And faints, o’erpowered with strong desire, To meet Thy special presence there. 2. My heart and flesh cry out for God; There would I fix my soul’s abode, As birds that in the altars nest; There would I all my young ones bring, An offering to my God and king, And in Thy courts for ever rest. 3. Happy the men to whom ’tis given, To dwell within that gate of Heaven, And in Thy house record Thy praise; Whose strength and confidence Thou art, Who feel Thee, Savior, in their heart, The Way, the Truth, the Life of grace: 4. Who, passing through the mournful vale, Drink comfort from the living well, That flows replenished from above; From strength to strength advancing here, Till all before their God appear, And each receives the crown of love. 5. Better a day Thy courts within Than thousands in the tents of sin; How base the noblest pleasure there! How great the weakest child of Thine! His meanest task is all divine, And kings and priests Thy servants are. 6. The Lord protects and cheers His own, Their light and strength, their shield and sun; He shall both grace and glory give; Unlimited His bounteous grant; No real good they e’er shall want; All, all is theirs, who righteous live. 7. O Lord of hosts, how blest is he Who steadfastly believes in Thee! He all Thy promises shall gain; The soul that on Thy love is cast Thy perfect love on earth shall taste, And soon with Thee in glory reign.

O Holy Book!

Author: F. E. Belden Appears in 5 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 First Line: O holy Book of truth divine! Lyrics: 1 O holy Book of truth divine! Eternal as thy Maker's name, Eternal as thy Maker's name; Thro' countless ages of decline Thy glowing truths have stood the same, Thy glowing truths have stood the same. 2 The dust of time is on thy page, Yet dims no pure and hallow'd tho't, Yet dims no pure and hallow'd tho't; In ev'ry clime, in ev'ry age Have saints thy holy comfort sought, Have saints thy holy comfort sought. 3 Thou art the life, the joy, the light, The hope of trusting thousands here, The hope of trusting thousands here Whose faith shall find eternal sight Beyond this dreary mortal sphere, Beyond this dreary mortal sphere. 4 No other rule by which to live, No other faith like thine to save; No other faith like thine to save; No other hope such peace can give When near the cold and silent grave, When near the cold and silent grave. 5 O wondrous lamp of promise sweet! Thy light illumes the trusting soul; Thy light illumes the trusting soul; With glory that shall be complete When days and years have ceased to roll, When days and years have ceased to roll.
